openbox is a fork of blackbox 0.62.1. They basically did a lot of the same work as the 0.65 series (STL, cleanups) as well as new stuff -- netwm, wheel mouse, etc. The person working on it also hacks on blackbox with Brad and I so openbox ends up being a test bed for ideas that slowly percolate into blackbox proper. If you find a patch I have/will not include there is a good chance it is in openbox. So basically if you want a specific feature not in blackbox and going over to fluxbox scares you then openbox may be then solution until blackbox acquires your feature. Currently netwm is a strong reason to try out openbox for some people.
